Gots Me Some Satellite
So my Christmas present was a Sirius Satellite Radio (Model S-50). That was cool. The downside was the scarcity of the home docking setup that allows you to listen at home.I was finally able to track one down (thanks Abt), and it arrived yesterday.
As you may have guessed, very sweet. For a start, got to listen to Howard Stern this morning for the first time in a couple of months. Word was that the show was reveling in the newfound freedom to curse. Fact is, the show is pretty natural in its use of F-bombs (e.g., can you imitate Joe Pesci in Goodfellas without a few? Hell no!).
Stern is on from 5-9am (or so) here, with a West Coast rebroadcast from 9-1 -- so that's a lot of Howard.
As far as other stations go, I haven't been able to listen to many of them at much length so far -- but early favs are "First Wave" (New Wave/'80s -- playing Echo at the moment), "Left Of Center" (Indie Rock -- playing Test Icicles at the moment) and (of course) The CBC.
Only about 150 other stations to sample.
